MRP Planning Strategy

MTS - Make to Stock (push model); easy to forecast, moves fast
MTO- Make to Order (pull model): slow moving products, hard to fast, costly to keep in the inventory
BTO - Build to Order (pull model)
ATO - Assemble to Order (pull model): Motorcycle, Bike, customized garment, computers
ETO - Engineer to Order (pull model): construction, engineering firm,


Below the some more specifics about MTO model:

MTO - manufacturing process , manufacturing starts only after a customer order is received

It's a pull type of operation.

Production is triggered from a Sales Order, or a Customer Order

Make to order production is largely a production planning configuration. It is also controlled by the requirements type, which is determined by three things the strategy group (MRP 3) in MMR the MRP group (MRP1) in MMR the item category and MRP type (MRP 1)

The requirements type is determined on the basis of the MRP group (MRP1) and the strategy group (MRP3) in the material master record. In addition, a plant must be assigned for make-to-order items in the sales order.

The strategy group groups all the planning strategies that can be used for a particular material. The planning strategy represents the procedure used for planning a material and is (technically speaking) controlled by the MRP types. Dependencies You define planning strategies and strategy groups in Customizing for demand management.

Process in ECC (Process flow of Strategy 20:)
1. Creation of sale order  – VA01
2. MRP run – MD01/MD02
3. Planned order conversion to production order – MD04
4. Production Execution – CO02, MB1A, CO15, MB31
5. Sale order stock in plant- MD04
6. Delivery of the stock to customer against the sale order – VL01N


MRP Strategies

Make - To - Stock

10 - Make to stock productionhttp://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-50032
  • For Finished product (Material master – MRP3 tab)
  • Only the planned independent requirement important when run the MRP
  • Sales order only info, not relevant for MRP, but you can display them
  • determined without reference to sales orders
  • FIFO principle (oldest PIR reduced first)

11 - Make-to-stock prod./gross reqmts plnning: http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-53077

30 - Production by lot size:
  • For Finished product (Material Master – MRP3 tab)
  • FIFO principle (oldest PIR reduced first)
  • Sales order is MRP relevant
  • Planned independent requirements are not consumed by sales orders

40 - Planning with final assembly:
  • For Finished Product (Material Master – MRP3 tab)
  • Sales order is MRP relevant
  • Planned independent requirements are consumed by sales orders
  • If the customer requirements exceed the PIR, automatically creates planned order (including unplanned quantities) for sales order.
Example: Material Master settings in MRP3 tab:
  • Strategy group: 40
  • Consumption mode: 2 (Backward/Forward comsumption)
  • Bwd consumption period: 30 day
  • Fwd consumption period: 20 day
With this settings the Sales Order will be consume the required quantities from the Backward PIR (to 30 days from SO date), and afterward from the Forward PIR (to 20 days from SO date), still the Sales Order not will be ok.
  • MD73 shows you the Planned Independent Requirements
  • Sales Order not will be visible in MD04
  • SE16:
    • PBIM: search Material, and copy the Requirement Pointer
    • PBED: insert Requirement Pointer, the quantitites will be visible
    • PBHI:
  • MD74: if you delete the Sales Order, the Planned Independent Requirement will be visible again in MD04 (Stock List)

70 - Planning at Assembly Level:
  • For Semi-finished product (Material Master – MRP3 tab)
  • The finished product can show any strategy!
  • The requirements consumed by sales orders in the second level of BOM
  • Using this strategy for example: in car manufacturing

Make - To - Order

20 - Make to order production: http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-54915
  • Without PIR
  • Production only if there is sales order
  • Using this strategy for example: special yacht or spaceship manufacturing etc.
  • Material Master MRP4 tab you can set Ind/Coll. (only to subassembly), and then you can see the Orders what you are set in here:
    • 0 – inheritance from header
    • 1 – Individual: stated individually
    • 2 – Collective: grouped together
  • MRP elements are created with reference to sales orders  
  • MD50: MRP run for the grouped segment

50 - Planning without final assembly:
  • Assemblies and components are kept in stock until the SO is received
  • Indepenedent planning from SO with planned independent requirements (PIRs)
  • High value added at final assembly level
  • Reduce delivery times
  • Individual/ collective indicator except for the final assembly it is set to 2
